What is your browser? Have you upgraded or made any changes recently? Is it set to purge cookies or history after a set period of time? Behavior(s) #1 sound like problems I've run into with Firefox. I cured it by whitelisting the cookies for google and some other sites. I just recently had a bunch of stuff break when I upgraded from 3.5.whatever to 3.6. I had to either re-install or download upgrades for the add-ons; a real pita. Problem #2 sounds familiar too. I think it may be a setting in your browser, but without knowing what it is, cannot confuse matters more...

It's been a while since I hurt myself (and saying that just started a curse...). I can remember usung my belt sander on a small, thin piece of wood using a coarse belt. The belt grabbed the piece of wood and spit it across the shop. Before I could pull back, I had pressed my hand into the belt: it grabbed three of my fingers and spun the skin around the bone, sanding them on two sides. Hard to explain how you managed to sand *between* your fingers!

Perhaps we could suggest he abandon the overly aggressive tailed tools and take up the hand plane and scraper along with the brace and bow drill?

My right index finger is 1/8 th inch shorter due to having it sucked into a disk sander in high school woodshop. Too much clearance between disk and table. Lesson learned. WW

OUCH!
